Move BeamViz Objs to Layer

Overview

This command facilitates moving all the BeamViz objects to a new layer, building up a rough plot.

Instructions

Select the beams you wish to file on another layer. If no beams are selected, the command converts all beams on the current layer.
Select the Move BeamViz Objects to Layer menu command.
A dialog prompts you for a suffix name for the layer, usually the system name. The layer name can be new or existing.

You can choose whether to hide or show the layer and to deselect the Show Beam parameter for all moved beams.
If you are building a rough plot, you may wish to make the new layer visible and to have the command turn off Show Beam. If you have already converted your beams to Lighting Devices, you may wish to hide the new layer.
Click OK, and the beams are moved.
